I've quickly grown to like Taylor, and there are some lovely quotes here, particularly re John at the end:

Ultimate success front of mind for new Swan to erase Pies flag pain - Ultimate success front of mind for new Sydney Swan Taylor Adams to erase Collingwood Magpies premiership pain (https://www.afl.com.au/news/1146468).

It's an odd article in a few ways. It feels like it's been edited at some point, because it talks about the abilities of Warner, Gulden and Rowbottom and then says they were the best five trainers during the pre-season. Not amongst the best five trainers, but THE best five trainers. So who were the other two best-five-trainers.

I also wonder about Adams talking so much - not just this article, but pretty much every time something is written about him - about missing out on last year's premiership. I understand that it must be difficult for players in that situation, but it happens every year. And he was injured, not omitted. It just happens.

Re the premiership comments, I assume he gets questions about it which he answers honestly.

I feel sad for him that he does not feel part of that premiership because he missed the big game.

I think Adams was also disappointed with the lack of communication from the coach.

I agree.....I enjoyed the article and my only thought was that I hope he gets his fantasy finish because that will mean we have won the flag. I for one will be wrapped for him.

I agree too, however while I don't think he'll get dropped, particularly in finals, I really hope he steps up his game a bit as he has just been OK this year so far, and we still have Mills and Parker waiting in the wings...

Going to be interesting come crunch time if we have no injuries. I have Parker ahead of Adams.

Either one would be a pretty handy in the sub role.
